The theory also holds that audiences are responsible for choosing media to meeting their needs. The approach suggests that people use the media to fulfil specific gratifications. This theory would then imply that the media compete against other information and sources for viewers' gratification. (Katz, E Blumler, J G.& Gurevitch, M. 1974). It is suggested that the uses and gratification theory has to fulfil one of the following need when we choose a form of media: Identify - being able to recognize ...
